FAPT 227 - Figure Painting

3 creditsPainting projects are designed to develop awareness of the many issues to be considered in creating forms that represent the human being. Working from the live models as well as from other visual sources, including photography and fine-art masterworks, students investigate conceptual and stylistic possibilities in depicting the human figure. Concerns for gesture, weight, color, proportion, scale, apparel, portraiture, space and light, composition, and narration can all be circumstances in which the human figure is the center of interest.
